Message In A Bottle

Dear Mummy,

Last Saturday Hannah recieved a letter in the post. it was from a couple in lincolnshire who were returning her letter to her. this may seem like an ordinary, if slightly odd circumstance - but three years ago Hannah posted this letter in a wine bottle and flung it off the coast of John O'Groats. it is nice to think there is some hope left in the world, that people will try to brighten the life of a small child by taking a stranger into their hearts for just a moment.

we have had a horrible scare with Ross the last couple of days - we thought he might be down with meninitis, but he seems to have recovered now. in fact he is now overly hyper and is driving his parents up the wall.

i was out at placement today, it was glorious outside so i took my activity onto the patio and sat with the children there. we were making under the sea pictures, it was very popular. tomorrow we are going to make a 3D one, i have made a little aquarium out of a box and they are going to make fishes to hang in there like theyre swimming so that should be good..........either that or a disaster.

i miss you lots - especially as ruthie is coming up next week to see me. i miss her too


love you lots and lots and lots
